Lyrics

I’ve been stuck chasing your perfect moments

I've been preoccupied pursuing the ideal moments associated with you.

Falling for you only through a screen

Falling in love with you, but the connection is only virtual, through a screen.

You get away with anything if you own it

You can get away with anything if you confidently own it.

COVERGIRL virtual daydream

Reference to the superficiality and artificiality of a virtual world, likening it to a COVERGIRL virtual daydream.

Ive been in and out of my

Expressing a state of fluctuation between thoughts and emotions.

Head and I found I seem to get lost up in it

Getting lost in one's own thoughts, particularly those that may be troubling or confusing.

All to forget who we are for a minute

Choosing to forget one's true self momentarily, perhaps in the pursuit of escaping reality.

Just a minute

Emphasizing a short duration of distraction or escape.

Maybe I know you better in my head

Suggesting a deeper understanding or connection with the person in one's imagination rather than reality.

I know it’s been a long time coming

Acknowledging that it has taken a considerable amount of time for a realization or understanding to develop.

If only I could show you but you slipped away

Expressing regret for not being able to demonstrate feelings before the person disappeared.

I never had a chance to

Reflecting on missed opportunities or the lack of a chance to express feelings.

Lost fascination scrolling aimlessly

Feeling disinterested or bored while scrolling through content without purpose.

Making my way through the filtered truth

Navigating through a distorted version of reality, influenced by filtered information.

Same 10 faces flashing on the screen

Observing a repetition of a limited set of individuals in the virtual space.

Convincing myself it’s something new

Convincing oneself that there is novelty in the familiar faces encountered online.

If I met you for an instant

Contemplating the possibility of meeting the person briefly, but unsure of what would be said.

Would I even say anything

Doubting whether any meaningful communication would occur in a brief encounter.

I think I’m fine knowing you from a distance

Content with maintaining a distant connection rather than seeking closeness.

Would it be better to dream

Questioning whether it would be preferable to continue dreaming about the person.

Maybe I know you better in my head

Reiteration of the idea that the person is better understood or appreciated in one's imagination.

I know it’s been a long time coming

Acknowledging the prolonged nature of the realization about the person.

If only I could show you but you slipped away

Expressing regret for the missed opportunity to demonstrate feelings before the person disappeared.

I never had a chance to

Reflecting on missed opportunities or the lack of a chance to express feelings, repeated from line 12.

I wanna know what it is and have I lost it

Expressing a desire to understand what something is and questioning if it has been lost.

I wanna see you in the light that I once did

Expressing a wish to see the person in a positive light as before.

Can we go back to days of innocence when

Nostalgia for a time of innocence when nothing had changed.

Nothing had changed

Recalling a time when everything was pure and unaltered.

Maybe I know you better in my head

Reiteration of the idea that the person is better understood or appreciated in one's imagination.

I know it’s been a long time coming
